A bit of rogue whitespace has slipped into ChangeLog again. I spent some time reading the Emacs manual and found that Emacs can automatically fix the issue if the "whitespace-auto-cleanup" variable is set. Setting this variable globally is a bad idea, since some files really do need whitespace that Emacs sees as problematic: portable shell scripts that need to restore IFS are an example.

I suggest adding this to ChangeLog to make this problem stay solved:
